The BG-8S Smart Battery Checker is a powerful and versatile device with a 260,000 color display that can be clearly seen even under strong sunlight. It provides detailed and easy-to-understand measurements for a wide range of battery types and sizes, making it easier than ever to read cell voltage, battery cycles, output, and more. The device is also highly customizable with accessible settings.
The BG-8S supports various battery connection methods, such as XT60 / XT60i, XH2.54 1-8S balanced lead, XH 2.54 3-pin, JST, and more. It can measure LiHv, LiPo, Li-lon, LiFe, and NiMh / Cd batteries, as well as BEC.
This device features various smart functions, including intelligent cell voltage balancing that optimizes performance. Once the process is complete, the checker automatically enters low power mode. The BG-8S is also fully compatible with BattGO technology and uses the specially-crafted XT60i connector plug to examine batteries. For more information on BattGO, please visit their website.
Moreover, the BG-8S doubles as a portable power bank for your personal devices when connected to a battery. It supports Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 / 3.0, USB BC1.2, and Apple parameters, with a maximum output of 12V / 2A.
Finally, the BG-8S can also perform a variety of communication protocol analyses, such as PWM, PPM, and S.BUS, by connecting a standard three-pin plug. The device will have more protocol analysis support added in future firmware updates.
